Board footprint and contact rating
Tin on the solder tail keeps the through-hole joint reliable during wave soldering.
Through-hole termination with 0.125" (3.18 mm) post length — suitable for 0.062" to 0.093" PCB thickness. The 8 positions are fully loaded; no empty slots in the insulator.
Comparing with nearby siblings
The 5-534998-4 offers more positions (8 vs 5) and heavier gold plating (30 µinch vs 8 µinch) for higher cycle-life applications, though at a lower per-contact current rating (2 A vs 3 A).
